“Dear President Yoweri Museveni, we need time if we are to go, give us like 2-5 years. And when we are going, please let them compensate us with a reasonable amount of money,” read one of the placards.
Uganda Radio Network interviewed some of the so-called strangers along Freedom Drive in Magere near the home of NUP’s presidential candidate Robert Kyagulanyi and they said they came from Entebbe.
According to the traffic road map that was released on Friday, the presidential candidates are required to use Kabaka’s road exiting Kyambogo to Ntinda and Northern bypass, which explains the heightened security deployment in Ntinda and Minister’s village.
The venue is heavily guarded by military police, UPDF and regular Police Officers who are patrolling the area, which is covered with posters of the National Resistance Movement candidate Yoweri Museveni.
